Well, yeah. Not enough would disagree for there to be controversy. I'm sure there's some folks who think we should be able to kill freely, but they're a minority.
So your argument is if most people agree that something is wrong, there's no reason to report that it happened?

Re: BLM terrorist kills white woman for saying "all lives matter"

Of course if a white person had killed a black person for saying "black lives matter" or even "all lives matter" then that shit would be all over the news.
BLM thug kills a white woman though? Meh, who cares.
I saw this in the news.
She said "All lives matter." And walked away. They shot her in the head, from behind, as the couple was walking away.
Truly stupid. People are being shot over this all lives matter stuff, now.
True, but hey, at least everyone (everyone who knows about it anyway) agrees that what happened is wrong so the media has absolutely no reason to cover it according to StyleTime .
What's that, you say? Not everyone knows about it so the media should cover it? Well, yeah, common sense would suggest that but apparently a certain someone is sorely lacking in that area lol.
Going by that same logic, guess that also means the media shouldn't have covered the horrible murder of the young girl who got ran over in Chatlottesville since everyone agreed it was tragic.

IYOMost people agreeing that it was wrong represents what percentage of the reason it wasn't covered by most news outlets. 5% 20% 80% and does that percentage hold true for all other murders?

It really is amazing, the lengths some people will go in order to avoid admitting that the reason it's not getting much coverage is because it doesn't fit the MSM's narrative.
Me, DDM, and Artol are the only ones who actually tried talking about the event, other than the OP. I only see this thread going in another circle unless some new details break.
That's no excuse to ignore this story or not point out all of the details.
Journalists are supposed to report on things like this regardless of whether or not they think it "fits their narrative".
Both right-wing and left-wing news sites covered the George Floyd murder. So I guess that it "fit the narrative" of places like FOX news and OAN news, yeah?
Is that going to be the new argument to be used by leftists whenever CNN or MSNBC doesn't cover a relevant story? "Well, that story doesn't fit their narrative so it's perfectly acceptable for them not to cover it."
I think situations like these is why you're going to have an escalated civil war/race war that the media keeps feeding.
It's going to get worse. You're not going to see the white supremacists (from multiple groups) just sit back and keep taking this. Makes me nervous. An escalating civil war and race war (not mutually exclusive) is not a win for anyone.

Ha, wrong on that one, the media wins YUGELY, just like as much as they hate trump, his headlines drives their circulation and clicks. Trump might have single handedly saved multiple media/news groups.

You're not wrong.
CNN big-wig producer said as much about Trump back in 2017/2018. Can't remember when. They need Trump to stay afloat.
Perhaps that is why Trump will win in the fall - I don't know what the media is going to do to ensure Trump will win.
The woman clearly didn't deserve to die, no matter how stupid her ideas were. The entire "All lives matter movement" is a racist equalisation strategy aimed at the already bigoted and stupid. However, being bigoted and stupid doesn't mean you deserve to be shot. The US gun culture and the culture war exacerbated by the right trying to prevent those without a voice having one is going to lead to more and more of this.

Pretty much.
The title of this thread is also dishonest, the argument started because someone in the group Jessica Doty Whitaker (the victim) was with used a racial slur, it was overheard by another group and that started the confrontation which unfortunately lead to the shooting. Guns were present with both groups.
